I love watching dalton Knecht in the nba but where is all the other good Tennessee players like Josh Richardson grant williams admirol Schofield ??

Grant Williams starts for Charlotte he tore his ACL

 

[omghulkhands]

Josh has been hurt and got traded at the deadline as filler, and then waived. He has been in the NBA almost 10 years now. I assume his career is likely over.

Admiral got a little run with the Magic for a few years. But he is likely done with the NBA and will be full-time Europe.

Kyle has a good Euro career and was on the Canada team that won the FIBA tournament last year and was on the select team for Canada at the Olympics but didn’t make the final roster.

Chandler has been playing G league and doesn’t seem to have earned the attention of any teams. I suppose jsut too small.

Keon has been pretty good lately for the Nets. Look at his last 10 game stats.

Springer got traded at the deadline and cut for a salary dump for the Celtics. He did technically win a title last year lol. He is now on a 10 day contract for the Jazz. He will probably make a roster again. He is pretty good imo.

Grant got hurt as explained above.

Tobias Harris key member of the Pistons. And the Pistons finally don’t suck.

 

[Creeker]

Grant is injured
Admiral is overseas now.
Springer is with the Celtics but in limited minutes.
Josh Richardson was waived on feb 9th after being traded.
Tobias is in Detroit now.
We have several others in the g league or overseas still playing.

Man, I understand why he went, but I wish we could’ve had Chandler for one more year. That could have been THE year to win it all.

Kenny definitely should have stayed in college. At Tennessee preferably.
He left after his freshman year.
Dude would be a Senior this year and probably have a Natty on his shelf. He'd have some good NIL money, and be a made man in Tennessee as far as advertisement deals and popularity.
Way be than playing in the G league IMO.
Then again he could have tore his ACL or something and possibly never heard of again.

He got a good amount of guaranteed money on his rookie deal, which was cool. And made his decision to leave not totally catastrophic. It’s probably more than he’d have made in NIL.

But it’s pretty brutal for kids similar to him around that time who could have made WAY more money staying in college than overseas or G-league if they had just known that the NIL shoe was about to drop.

Yeah, Kenny got a lot of money guaranteed. It was a record for a 2nd rounder iirc.
If it worked out perfect for him it might have still worked out comparably if he would have got a Natty and whatnot. Could still have went to NBA at that point, but not knowing for sure I would have took the money, too. No doubt.

I guess I was more speaking from a selfish fan standpoint.

It’s so difficult to make it in the NBA. The NBA drafts on potential but never heard from three yrs after the draft.
